I know Bruce is sadly no longer with us. But I bet now he's in heaven, he'll be driving his mustang, popping off a few shot's with his Winchester, and generally raising a little hell. That's the kind of man Bruce Day was. He was always thinking of others even when he wasn't well, he'd always make you feel better. He was kind, outspoken, honest and he was very much loved by all who knew him. I'm glad I met you Bruiser. Happy Birthday my dear friend. Love you always, miss you forever. xxx
In the sweetest child, there's a vicious streak.
In the strongest man, there's a child so weak.
In the whole wide world, there's no magic place.
So you might as well rise, put on your bravest face.

Though we might have precious little...
It's still precious.

I'm sure he's now in a better place.

Great heart from Kopite.

Happy birthday!

Fray Luis de León said:

As we were saying yesterday...
Fray Luis de León wrote mystical poems which prompted Cervantes to proclaim León "a genius who astounds the world and who, in ecstasy, might rob us of our senses." León was also an active man who taught at the University of Salamanca, translated classical and biblical literature, and wrote on religious themes. Twice denounced before the Inquisition, he was imprisoned for "heresy," though he returned to the University to later hold the chairs of Moral Philosophy and Biblical Studies.

Tradition has it that he began his lecture the first day after returning from four years' imprisonment with the words "as we were saying yesterday..."

Yep, Bruce will be missed. Steph thanks for remembering!

Happy Birthday Bruce!! Below is a poem from Odgen Nash that I hope reflects where you are now...

I Didn't Go To Church Today - Odgen Nash
I didn't go to church today,
I trust the Lord to understand.
The surf was swirling blue and white,
The children swirling on the sand.
He knows, He knows how brief my stay,
How brief this spell of summer weather,
He knows when I am said and done
We'll have plenty of time together.
______                               _______                                 _________                      _________
"To understand a man you should walk a mile in his shoes. If what he says still bothers you that's ok because you'll be a mile away from him and you'll have his shoes." - Anon
"I shall never move quickly, except to avoid more work or find excuses."

Happy Birthday, Bruce.  Hope you are raising hell up there.  You are missed down here.
It's because you flit from post to post like a puppy in a room full of people, causing merriment wherever you go. And shagging their leg - Medilloni
